Authors pov
"Shall we go miss?..."
William asked as he entered the cabin.
Sarah was ready to go in the party, she was wearing beautiful red gown which was backless and had a slit on it which was showing her sexy thick thigh. She had high heels on and was looking perfect with smoky make up and curly hair.
"You are looking stunning..."
He complimented with smile.
Sarah smiled gratefully at him.
"Thanks to you... You are my life savior..."
She thanked him gratefully.
Sarah had no time to go home and get ready for the party after dealing with so much work so William called the makeup artists in office and she got ready there.
"You are like my daughter... Please don't thank me..."
He said with small smile.
Sarah nodded, he was more of a father than her original one.
"Your daughter is lucky to have you Mr. William..."
She said.
"We should go now..."
William gave her his arm to hold and they head towards the party.
They reached the venue and he helped her to get out of the car. As soon as she stepped out reporters bombarded with questions.
'miss Sarah is it true that you secretly got married?'
'who is your husband'
'is it true that marriage was just a business deal...'
'if you are married then why you are here with your P.A'
'is it true that you got married to your sisters fiancé...'
'can you give some clarification on this matter, are these rumors true?...'
Sarah ignored all of them, security was doing good job by keeping them away. She started walking in with William.
"From where they get all these information?"
She said madly to William.
"They have so many ways and gossips like this spread like wildfire... Just ignore them, they are rumors and let it be like that..."
He assured and she nodded.
She entered the beautiful big hall. It had a royal look and red theme. She could see the famous and powerful business tycoon present there.
"Hello miss Rosewood... So glad you make it..."
The host reached to greet her.
"Of course Mr. Gomez... Congratulations, you got the project..."
Sarah greeted him.
"Please enjoy yourself..."
He said with professional smile and walked away.
William and Sarah went to grab some drinks and started taking to their business partners and friends. Suddenly Sarah looked at the entrance and her smile fell when she saw Xavier with Amanda.
She had a designer gown on and was glowing with jewelry, he had black suit on and matching tie to her golden gown. They were walking in like they are happy couple.
Xavier looked up and his eyes locked with Sarah. Smile fell from his lips when he saw the look on her face. He didn't knew that she is invited in the party too.
'i am doing nothing wrong, she has no place in my life'
He completely ignored Sarah and started taking to people like he doesn't even know her.
"He should have come here with you?... Is he treating you like this?..."
William asked frowning.
Sarah chuckled bitterly.
"What do you expect, it's not this marriage has meaning."
"But he shouldn't disrespect the marriage like this..."
William said disappointingly.
"It's fine Mr. William... Trust me it's perfectly fine. It's better if he stays away from me..."
She sighed.
"This is not the first time where my life is disappointing me. I should have known that this will be the reality of my marriage..."
William looked away in guilt.
'it's not your fault Sarah neither it's his fault. I can understand that why Xavier is so upset with you and trust me if you learn about it then you will hate yourself. Xavier is a victim and so are you...'
"I hope you are okay?..."
He asked.
She chuckled bitterly.
"Of course I am okay... Why would I be upset. You know what Mr. William, I think I should start enjoying my life. Why should men have all the fun..."
"What are you trying to do?..."
He asked confused.
"Whatever my heart desires!"
She smiled.
Amanda looked at Xavier who was totally ignoring her, she was feeling like a doll who is there to dance on his fingers. He haven't even spoke a word to her. He wasn't even listening the man who was talking to him, she followed the direction of his eyes and spotted Sarah.
Xavier was looking at Sarah like a lost man. She was looking stunning and that gown was enhancing her beauty. She wasn't that teenager anymore, she is a stunning sexy woman now. He couldn't take her eyes off her. Hundred of women were present in that hall and he was lost in her only.
any trouble miss..." William said concerned. "Is there anything else to happen Mr. William... I don't think I have something else to worry about." She said with annoyed face. She have no idea why but seeing Xavier with someone else was upsetting her. 'why I am feeling like this?...' But she didn't wanted to accept it. 'if he doesn't care then I shouldn't either...' "Hello miss Sahay..." William said when he saw Anamika. She was wearing emerald green gown and was looking breathtaking as usual. "Hello Mr. William... Good evening Sarah..." She greeted with smile. "Good evening, didn't expected to see you here. You usually don't attend parties..." Sarah asked. "This was kind of important for me..."
"Good evening miss Sahay..."Xavier ignored Sarah and held his hand in front of Anamika for a shake.
Anamika looked hesitant before shaking hands with Xavier. He looked at Sarah and she turned around with scowl. Facing her back to him. She couldn't understand why would Xavier approach Anamika.
'Is he hitting on her now?... Pervert...'
she scowled.
She could hear them as she wasn't standing too far.
"My secretary tried to contact you, I heard you rejected our offers... May I know why?..."
He asked and Sarah frowned.
'is he talking about business or threatening her... Doesn't he know the way of talking to woman...'
She rolled her eyes.
Anamika took a deep breath trying to tame her rapid breathing.
"I will be honest here Mr. King... You are mafia boss and I am not getting to get involved with you in any kind of business..."
She said honestly.
"It's not about Mafia... It's a different thing, not anything illegal..."
He said in soft voice as he noticed the change in her state. She was slightly shaking and couldn't understand why. He haven't done anything wrong to her.
harm to you, your work is really good and I need your partnership in that resort. I don't think anyone else has become so successful in this field like you..." Xavier said genuinely. "I would have done it either way but I don't really want to use my power against you. I know you are a excellent business woman and the reputed one. You don't have to be scared of me..." he assured. Anamika released a big sigh. She was about to say no but her brother came from behind. He greeted Xavier and Xavier looked at them confused. Anamika was Indian and her brother was Asian, how can they be siblings. "I'll talk to her regarding this Mr. King, leave it to me..." Chang Said sincerely. Xavier nodded in understanding. "May I have a pleasure to dance with you..." He asked like a gentleman. This deal was a very important for Xavier and he
they walked towards the dance floor like she is trying to hide from someone. Sarah's grip on her glass tightened as she saw Xavier treating Anamika like a gentleman.
